On our boat, one of the rules is:
TWO different people must always confirm the correct
fill when adding fuel or water.

This is a VERY GOOD idea and should be incorporated into all boaters
procedures. Routine tasks are frequently done with a mindless "Done it a
hundred times" attitude.
You only have to have a big bad mistake made once (I did!) to realize how
important this might be to have someone else looking over your shoulder
before you say OK.
